bug#29934: in virtual machines the graphical dektop environment randomly fails to show up

[Catonano]

You said that I could have logged in from the host terminal, right ?

How do I do that ?

The host terminal is running qemu, there are the messages that I'm pasting here, no prompt

Please bear with me
